GLB 200

[demetrios]

Hey peoples.

So wifes 2018 V90 is going this year and I need a replacement.
Found the GLB 200 for decent money (personal lease) but im concerned at the small engine vs big car.

I'm sure it's fine for around town but I'm concerned with overtaking and picking up speed (80mph) on motorway.

Does anyone have any real world feedback that owns the 200 petrol models (new 1.3 turbocharged engine)

Pop in to mb and test drive one, then you’ll know yourself?

Are they even doing test drives now? Me and the MD of local mercedes aren't pals so will have to go to colindale MB when I'm at the inlaws this weekend.

You mean the 1.3 Renault engine? When the dealer tried to sell me a replacement for wife's 1.6 petrol GLA and all they had to offer is the 1.3 petrol (I said if I want a Renault I'll go to the Renault dealer) or a Diesel which is unsuitable for short journeys, or the AMG thing. On a GLA/ Really?
No, we'll keep the one we have thanks
